Hot Pick: Cigar and craft beer pairing

We’ve got a new craft beer advocacy group in town and tonight they’re hosting something we have yet to experience: a craft beer and cigar pairing.

This is Yeast Priests’ first event (put on with the help of Butch Hoffer’s and Giglio Distributing) and we’re pretty excited about it. They’ll have craft beer from Boulevard, New Belgium and Abita and will pair the beer with various cigars. Also on hand will be Ted’s Cigars new HOPZ Craft Beer Cigar, a stogie seasoned with Centennial hops. The cigar’s makers call it “a worthy complement to the great craft beers available today.”

Even better: Butch Hoffer’s has plenty of potential gifts if you’ve yet to pick up something for Father’s Day. Come have a beer, a cigar and get something for Dad while you’re at it.
